Centre bars use of liquid oxygen for non-medical purposes, no exceptions

The Modi government swung into action to address oxygen shortage across the country.

The ministry of home affairs (MHA) banned non-medical use of liquid oxygen while plants have been asked to maximize production.

The ministry order will be implemented across states and UTs without exemptions in a bid to ensure all available oxygen is directed for Covid-19 patients.

MHA has also moved to ensure unobstructed inter-state movement of medical oxygen.

Green corridors are being created to facilitate a stable supply to hospitals in need of oxygen.
